Hello everyone!

Long time lurker here. Just applied to Haas through the Consortium. Is anyone else going this route?


I just submitted my Consortium application as well. Good luck!

Thanks for the feedback! It seems like the interview invitations have been slow to come out, at least based on GC user data. Eagerly awaiting that interview invitation e-mail!

Applying for R2 - lets hope I make it in time.

Danish/Australian. Design / Project Management / Venture background. GMAT 730, Q47, V45. GPA 3.53 - Major: Theater

My biggest worry is that my Quant score is relatively low for Berkeley and my major not being quant focussed makes this worse (though I did take lots of math, engineering and business/finance classes). Any suggestions/words of advice very welcome.

Anyway, good luck to all!

Btw I am having trouble finding the questions asked of recommenders. Are they the same as last year? Am I somehow missing it on the post info, or does someone know where I can find out?
Thanks

You can download the sample recommendation form that also contains the questions from the website.

My status description recently changed to:
"Your application for admission to the Berkeley Full-time MBA Program is under review by the Admissions Committee. You will be contacted at the decision deadline to see your final admissions decision. "
Does anyone who has received an interview invitation know the average time this status remained so before they received invitations?

Thanks.

My status changed within a week or two of submission. I don't think the switch date matters that much.

I'm applying for R2 (Nov 29th). I gave TOEFL iBT on 16th this month and obviously haven't received my scores yet. The online application does not let me enter just the test date and leave the scores as blank, even though the instructions at the top seem to say otherwise.

"If you have recently taken the TOEFL/IELTS and your scores are not yet available, enter the date of the test and leave the score areas blank."

Has anyone else been in such situation? If yes, is there is a recommended course of action (enter 0s for all the scores)?

Tried IE and Firefox with no luck. Anything in particular you would recommend? :)

If nothing else works, I'll drop in a mail to adcom tomorrow, although I may have to wait until monday to get a response.

If you tried those two then it's probably a different problem. (I had problems uploading files into the online app with Firefox, IE however worked.)

If I'm in your position I would just put in zeros in there, I don't think it's something that will break or make your application. I have just submitted for R2 too myself, best of luck for all of us! :-D
